Some idea of the vnlue Of water

Some idea of the value of water in
Southern California may be gained
from the opening of the Gage irri-
eating canal, near Riverside. Three
years ago land sold above Riverside
for five dollars an acre. 1t was wi h.
out water and was counted valuable
only for grazing Mr.. Gage made con-
tract with II large number of owners to
furnish them with abundant water at
500 per acre. Then he dug an
eieven-mile canal. supplied with water
lsartly from the Stnta Anna river, but
mainly from ariesian wells. r Gently
water was turned into the canal. and
land which sold for five dollars now
sells for $500 an acre

Once saw a Terrenevaugh come in
the harbor. She had her yards s.cock-
billed" and her flag lowered. A pail
fell upon the waiting throng on the
quay. As the small boat bearing the
men came within hailing distance, a
sweet, clear voice rang ont:
'.AS-tu vu mon Eugene Ia bass"
The cry came from a young girl of
not more than nineteen. and of exceed
ing comeliness- No reply was heard
from the sailors in the boat, and they
rowed silently to the quay. and step

Foremost in the pushing throng was

and she fell fainting on the wet land

her away. TWAS her brother she asked

During October, and until far into
November, the Terrenevaughs come
sailing into St Malo harbor, and the
glad reunions and scenes of sorrow are
repeated. The old medieval town, the
chief city of Ann of Brittany. takes on

The cargoes of the returning fleet are
unloaded on the quays, which are piled
high with bales of Goldfish.
1t is not uncommon, when, during
the fishing season, the vessel is in dam

Virgin that if they are brought safely
through the peril, they will make a
pcte7IHdge, or pilgrimage, to some
chapel. and offer up special thanks
giving service. This vow is always
strictly carried out on their return.

earves on the homeward voyage a per-

THE FORTH BRIDGE.
A Stupenduous Struc ure Eclipsing %oy
Thing of the Kind Yet Erected.

Crossing and recrossing the Firth f
Forth few days since, I got a good
sight of the great Forth bridge that is
now we'll on it's way to completion. It
will be the wonder and admiration of
the world, the browning triumph of
engineering genius, and our bold
Brooklyn bridge will have to take
back seat. A distinguished engineer
recently said of this colossal work:
''Witbout a doubt the Forth bridge is
the most stupendous structure ever at
tempted to be raised of iron or steel.
The whole of the work of the bridge is
of steel ION the cantilever and central
girder system. The entire length of the
bridge will be $500 feet, considerably
more than mile and half. The two
principal spans of the structure are
LOO feet each in length, two side spans
of SIS feet each, with the ends massively
supported and three intermediate piers.
In the middle of the LOO feet span
there is an unobstructed passage for
navigation $50 feet above the high
water mark. From the foundation of
the loftiest pier to the top of the canti-
levers, the height is 40 feet, ''or only
ten feet less than the great pyramid of
Egypt" The most powerful pier
weighs 10000 tons.
According to a report made the day
previous to my view of the structure the
materials put down on the spot up to
the present time reckon up $4,000
cubic feet of granite and 1000 tons of
Portland cement. Thus far 100. 900
cubic yards of masonry had been
erected in piers and abutments, $4,000
tons of steel in approaches and spars,
and 20, 600 more tons of steel is ready
for placing. At this time there are
80, 600 men at work in connection with
this gigantic undertaking, and the
force will average 5000 men the year
round. = Edinburgh Cor. Louisville
